from 2004 State Funeral of Presdt. Ronald Reagan--

Listen to the speeches and the prayers and reflect on how things have changed, not least in the character of presidents--

This service mentioned often "the end of the Cold War" and totalitarian states and freedom.

So what have we now--especially after Jan 20th.

You tell me.

For one thing dignity and a sense of propriety and truth has been lost, in my opinion.

And like Pandora's box, once it is lost, it can't be easily put back again.
